Panel to decide bcs game?

I hear ya, but think only a playoff will will make things right. I like the idea of one clear cut winner. It makes it more special (no matter what some of the trojans and tigers may say).

You think the BCS would understand no matter how you wrap it up- shit is still shit. Its just more red tape. Oh well, what do most of us know, were just fans! :(

Up untill the past couple of years I have been a big traditionalist and been very anti-playoff that is starting to change however.

I like Airspaces idea best. 11 conference winners and 5 at large, higher seed gets a home game.

I would so dearly love to see Miami, FSU, USC et al come to Columbus or AA for a game in Dec/Jan. I don't think enough attention has ever been paid to how many NC's Miami and USC have won by playing what is essentially a home game.

As for the lesser Bowls, they can still be played by the non-tourney teams similar to the NIT in basketball.

This is all fun conversation and all, but in reality its controlled by the conference commissioners who are in turn influenced heavily by school presidents and AD's. Untill you can convince that group to voluntarily walk away from the current cash cow in order to try something new, there will be no fundamental changes in the current system.

Put yourself in their shoes for a minute and see how hopeless this probably is. Would you risk messing with a current system that baisically guarantees you millions a year and in turn allows you to finance almost every other sport on campus?

So your going to give up a high reward/no risk system so that fans(who show up by the millions anyway) won't have to bicker about who the "real" NC is? WHY??? From the powers that be point of view it makes zero sense to mess with what you currently have.
